During the month of october, the Can-CerVive ministry will provide information on
early detection, prevention, and lifestyle
changes at our Breast Cancer awareness
table in the Atrium.
on Sunday, october 11, the Can-Cer-Vive
and Greeters ministries will distribute pink
ribbons, decals, and pins to the congregation
before the 7:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. worship
services.
The FACTS:
1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women
Breast Cancer is the second leading cause of death among women
Each year, it is estimated that over 220,000 women in the United States will be
diagnosed with breast cancer
Although breast cancer in men is rare, an estimated 2,150 men will be diagnosed
with breast cancer this year
These facts are provided by the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The best way to fight
breast cancer is to have a plan that helps detect the disease in its early stages.

Mind Power
The line formed at Garretts Popcorn in the Chatham community is an all too common
sight. In many respects, the photo is metaphor for the hunger for quality retail
establishments in our neighborhoods. But apparently, there is also demand for shiny,
newly-constructed payday loan stores that occupy prominent corner retail space.
This is the main reason for the Endeleo Institute to create The Financial Literacy
Academy. There is a systemic issue regarding our relationship with money and it
largely contributes to why just one-fifth of our kids complete college within six years.
The program goal is to integrate math, finance, and entrepreneurship and create a
completely different mindset when it comes to decision-making.
If you are the parent of a young person (grades 4th 12th), please contact our office at
773-966-1583. The line for financial empowerment forms here.
